[quote=Anonymous]I'm picky about certain things - brains, sense of humor, common sense, responsibility for himself, etc.  But he doesn't need to be rich, hot, "cool" or much taller than me to float my boat.  I think it's ok - and a good idea - to be picky about certain personality traits, especially if you're bringing similar traits to the table.  (like if you're smart, yes, you should probably limit yourself to guys who can converse on your level.  Or if you've got a good sense of humor, a very serious guy might not "get" you.)  But I think it pays to look at your list of "must-haves" and make sure that some of them aren't limiting you to a very small pool unnecessarily.

I think it's also a good idea to examine what you're bringing to the table, and make sure you're not expecting someone to forgive you for things you wouldn't overlook.  I have a friend who is pretty chunky and doesn't diet or work out much.  Her taste runs toward men who are in very good physical shape, and she doesn't have much luck with those guys.  I think it's because guys who work out a lot might be more attracted to a woman who is in pretty good shape too.  So I feel like maybe she's setting herself up for rejection by having that particular thing on her check-list.[/quote]
